I followed the advice about using nail varnish remover and it worked beautifully. However, using Pledge afterwards did not seem to restore the varnish as I would have hoped. I tried olive oil instead and that did the trick nicely.
It seems that nut oils have a lot of restorative qualities for wood. As an aside, try Brazil nuts for wood scratches - simply rub the nut along the scratch.

I have taken the advice of nail varnish remover and the 1 part vinegar and 3 part oil for the finish and it has worked a treat.
I used nail polish remover which I assume is the same as nail varnish remover and it totally took the wood finish off. Olive oil did NOT restore it! Ugh!
